If you have never been on an aircraft carrier, the one you should set foot on should be highly memorable. Thanks to the folks at the USS Midway Museum, it will be! America's longest serving aircraft carrier flew from 1945 to 1992. There's plenty to learn, whether you're a casual fan of history or a hard-core military buff, the guides are quite knowledgeable and will answer your questions as the tour winds down. Don't forget to check out the great items at the gift shop so you can take home a little piece of history.
